Zhou Wen landed on the edge of the stone tool and glanced at the four apes. They did not move at all and seemed not to mind what Zhou Wen did.
"Really want me to contract as a guardian?" Zhou Wen looked at the stone cocoon inside the stone tool, his face uncertain.
Contracting as a guardian is not difficult in itself. As long as the guardian's physical requirements are met, only one drop of blood is needed to complete the contract.
Even if the guardian's requirements are not met, the guardian can still make a contract as long as he is willing.
However, Zhou Wen has no interest in contract guardians, and is even somewhat repelled. In the final analysis, guardians are tools used by other dimensions to colonize the earth.
It's a bit similar to the cyborgs that humans once imagined. Contracting with such a creature may be betrayed at any time, which is an uncomfortable feeling.
The main reason is because Zhou Wen has too many secrets. If the guardian learns of such secrets and secretly informs the other dimension, God knows how the other dimension will deal with him.
If there was any other way, Zhou Wen would never contract a guardian. Even if he wanted to contract, it would have to be a master-servant contract like the Demon Infant and the Demon Killer.
But now that Zhou Wen thinks about it, it seems that there is no other way to go. This dimensional realm is really weird. Without a contract now, it seems that he can't get out.
Zhou Wen thought for a while and felt that if he could get out, he could make a contract first. Anyway, the guardianship contract was an equal contract. He could just escape first and then find a way to terminate the contract.
That's the good thing about an equal contract. It's not particularly difficult to terminate it, and you can still find a way.
"It's important to save your life." Zhou Wen thought of this, skillfully focused his fingerlight, pricked a pinprick-like wound on the finger of his other hand, squeezed out a drop of blood, and prepared to drip it onto the stone cocoon.
Before dripping the blood, Zhou Wen took a special look at the four apes below. Seeing that they had no intention of stopping it, he cruelly dripped the drop of blood onto the stone cocoon.
"Oh, I am forced to have no choice. I don't really want to be a contract guardian. My ancestors, don't want me. If you want to blame me, it's because the genes you inherited are too excellent." Zhou Wen thought sadly in his heart.
Blood had already dripped on the stone cocoon, and it was too late to regret it.
But the next second, Zhou Wen found in embarrassment that his blood fell on the stone cocoon, just like water drops falling on an oil pan. It slid down without a drop of blood on the stone cocoon.
"..." Zhou Wen opened his mouth wide and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"What's going on? Aren't you asking me to make a contract?" When Zhou Wen gradually calmed down, he became even more confused.
If he wasn't asked to make the contract, why did he come up? The four apes obviously agreed to let him come over. Such a performance should show that they still think highly of Zhou Wen.
However, his blood was completely unable to cause any reaction from the Guardian's Cocoon, indicating that he had not been recognized by the Guardian's Cocoon, or that his bloodline and attributes did not meet the Guardian's requirements.
"Did those four apes make a mistake?" Zhou Wen muttered to himself, but after taking a look at the four apes, he felt that this idea was wrong.
If Zhou Wen were one of those apes and realized that he had made a mistake, he would have swallowed it directly to avoid embarrassment. However, those apes had no such intention and seemed to be waiting for something.
"What's going on?" Zhou Wen looked at the stone cocoon again. If he looked carefully, he found that there was something special about this stone cocoon.
Zhou Wen had discovered before that there were some faint gray lines on the surface of the stone cocoon, which looked inconspicuous and could not be seen without looking carefully. Zhou Wen had previously thought that those gray lines were the natural patterns of the stone cocoon.
Now after looking carefully for a while, he found that it didn't seem to be the case. He found that the gray lines seemed to have been painted on by someone.
Zhou Wen didn't know what kind of pigment it was. It was gray like burnt paper ash. It was very closely combined with the stone cocoon and the color was similar. That's why Zhou Wen thought that those gray lines were part of the stone cocoon.
However, if you observe carefully, you will find that there are many places with gray lines, and they are all traces outlined with a brush. It is still the kind of brush used in the East District in ancient times. The paintings drawn also feel a bit like ink paintings, but they are much lighter. It seems It has gone through the baptism of time and is almost blurred.
"Drawing on the cocoon of the guardian?" Zhou Wen felt that this was done by someone who had nothing to eat and had nothing to do. The painting on it should have some purpose.
I walked around the edge of the stone tool and carefully studied the gray patterns on the Guardian's Cocoon. Although it was very faint, it was still roughly visible.
But whether Zhou Wen understood it or not, he discovered that those gray lines were a strange symbol, like a string of digital codes painted all over the surface of the Guardian's Cocoon.
Those symbols were very unfamiliar. Anyway, they were not some kind of words or symbols that Zhou Wen knew.
But Zhou Wen had a vague feeling that these strings of symbols were like circles of chains, surrounding the stone cocoon, as if locking the stone cocoon.
Zhou Wen secretly guessed: "Could it be that these gray lines have sealed the stone cocoon, so my blood cannot be absorbed by the stone cocoon?"
The more he thought about it, the more he was right. Zhou Wen planned to try to see if he could erase the gray lines, and then try to see if he could make a contract with it.
"Brother apes, do you want me to wipe away those gray lines before contracting the guardian cocoon?" Zhou Wen asked first because he was afraid that touching the stone cocoon would offend the apes.
But they still didn't show any expression, as if they didn't hear Zhou Wen speak at all.
"These four guys are so hateful. They obviously want me to do something, but they don't say anything or express anything." Zhou Wen wished he could kill them all. It would be better to explode four companion eggs.
In the future, I will buy a car without wheels and let the four of them carry me around every day.
After thinking about it, but seeing that they didn't respond, Zhou Wen thought that he should give it a try, so he carefully flew into the stone tool and slowly approached the stone cocoon.
While flying, he was still paying attention to their reactions. Seeing that they had no intention of stopping him, Zhou Wen finally landed on the stone cocoon.
The diameter of this stone cocoon is estimated to be four to five meters, which is quite big. I don't know what kind of guardian is inside. Since there are four apes guarding it, it is estimated that there may be a stone monkey inside.
"The legendary Monkey King seems to have jumped out of the stone. Could this guardian be the Monkey King?" Zhou Wen felt a little hopeful.
As a native of the East End, there seems to be no one who dislikes the Monkey King. Among the four monkeys in the world, he is much more famous than the other three.
